Frank Warren Show December 17th

Hi Guys,

Have just seen that Warren has won purse bids for George Groves to defend his British title against Paul Smith on Saturday December 17th at the Echo Arena, Liverpool

I am just wondering if anyone has any further information on this card? As far as i am aware the Echo Arena has a big capacity and is usually used for bigger shows ( eg Cleverly vs Bellew and Degales euro shot) so i am hoping this will be a stacked card similar to the "magnificent seven". I am especially interested as the date is my birthday and would love to attend boxing live, but i can't justify the expense etc if there is just the one watchable (albeit predictable) fight.

So who could be in action? Well Kevin Mitchell should be due a fight around then, as well as maybe a Frankie Gavin title fight? Maybe Derek chisora making a return? Also maybe Burns vs Katsidis? I also hear that Warren wants Degale to fight again this year after his euro shot so i assume he may be on the card too. Maybe he could fight Kenny Anderson so both he and Groves are fighting a common opponent and it can help build the rematch.

Any ideas or information guys would be appreciated, Many Thanks

It won't be Burns vs Katsidis that's been scheduled for Glasgow on November 12th.
